“The greatest inheritance that a parent can leave to their child is the memory of his love, otherwise the rest has no value.”

“The last child must inherit all the great attributes of his elders, then add in some of his own characteristics to be completely unique from the rest.”

“In considering the ledger equal, understand the greatest gift you have given your parents is the opportunity to raise you. The things a child gets from parents can't compare to the things a parent gets from raising a child. Only by experiencing this can you understand the degree to which children give meaning to parents' lives.”

“… besides love, independence of thought is the greatest gift an adult can give a child.”

“There is no friendship, no love, like that of the parent for the child.”

“When a child is given to his parents, a crown is made for that child in Heaven, and woe to the parents who raise a child without consciousness of that eternal crown!”

“However painful the process of leaving home, for parents and for children, the really frightening thing for both would be the prospect of the child never leaving home.”

“The worst form anger can take is that of a parent who feels her or his chance for “winning my child” is enhanced by “ruining my ex.” The law has given the most vindictive parent an invitation to play the “abuse” card. This is the “Great Temptation.””

“Respect the child. Be not too much his parent. Trespass not on his solitude.”

“When a parent denies a child its “parent time,” that parent is denying the child its child support -- its psychological child support.”
